Quote from Socrates:
"Ster, you sure Neoxx is a lush? I might have to cut him some slack, then, because I used to do some of my best trading totally wasted. If he could see what the B-Team is like, and watch us trade, we might be able to sway him to the dark side, as opposed to the backside. Just imagine his confusion if we all were in a room calling our market commentary at the same time on the same move:
Trader A: "The growth of the equivolume bar just accelerated!"
Trader B: "Price just bounced off the 38% fib and blew through the 20 EMA!"
Trader C: "The velocity of price just achieved the tradeable threshold!"
Trader D: "TDT just turned green!"
Trader E: "The 15 EMA just crossed over the 75 EMA!"
Trader F: "Price just broke out of the 30 minute opening range!"
Trader G: "Price just broke out of the total range distinguishing a range bound day from a trending day!"
Trader H: "Price just broke to midpoingt of the previous bar!"
Trader I: "The separation of the 15 EMA and the 75 EMA just went above 5 ticks!"
Trader J: "There is no resistance in sight for 10 points!"
Neoxx would scream: "Are you guys all nuts! Are you all looking at the same chart? How can you all be calling a long from ten different point of view?"
Trader A: "Neoxx, what do you call this orange furrball gnawing at my ankle?"
Neoxx: "A cat, of course! I'm not stupid!"
Trader A: "Everybody else, what do YOU call it?"
Trader Chorus (as in a Greek Tragedy): "Un chat, aubergine!" ,"Eine katze, Dummkopf!", "Un gatto, paisan!", "El gato, gringo!"
All: "Get it, Neoxx?"
